I have started collecting images from a new artist -- well, new to me at least. A Teamie friend of mine was kind enough to add me as a member of the FB page for MHK Designs and that started my love affair with these new digis. I went on a shopping spree after Mynn's newest release and this is the first time I've been able to use one of them. It's called "Animal Friends" and it's the main image in the "Friendship" set. The sentiment is from the "Beauty" set.
I used my ProMarkers to color the image, then cut it with a rectangle die from Spellbinders. I matted that with dark brown CS and added brown ribbon at the top. The bow I hand-tied using my bow maker and that ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon. I kept it pretty CAS because this card is going to the father of a friend who asked for a card that had animals on it. They live on a farm and have a whole passel of farm cats in the barnyard.

reflect a perfect, late-summer, lazy day. :-D
